| Idea! |
Hi all!
What are there, like 4 people who read this blog? :) I know I don't really give you much to go with here, especially since now I can't even get my pics to upload. And I can only post in the evenings after work, if I get home, and IF I remember. I've even been disappointing myself in how sucky this blog is lately, so I have a few ideas to turn things around.
For starters I'm going to try to blog about stuff in general, including, but not limited to, my knitting. Like why couldn't I have blogged last Thursday to say that Yannick and I went to a jeweler and picked an engagement ring? That was blog-worthy, right? But it never crossed my mind. So I'm really going to make an effort to not worry so much about how funny I am or if I'm witty at all, and just get the words out. I don't care if you like my jokes. I care if you like me.
Also, I'm going to open this blog up a bit. I have the space and don't use it all, so why not share? I'd like to start 2 features on my site: Blogs That Rock and Show Off!
"Blogs That Rock" will be about other people's blogs, so if you know of a site (or even your own) that people should check out, email me or post a comment and I'll let everyone know. We can even do a little Q&A (I almost typed T&A there, whoops!) I'm not limiting this to knitting blogs, so don't worry if it's not craft-related.
"Show Off!" is where you or anyone you know gets to, well, show off. I know that not everyone has a blog or even a website, so if you have pics of knitting (or crochet) FOs that you're super proud of, email them to me or post a comment with a link (if they're in an online photo album) and post the pic and a blurb here for everyone to see. They will always be here in my archives and I'll even make up a page where everyone can show off. You'll get your own post write-up all about your FO and what makes it so special. Did you learn a new technique? Master intarsia? Win a war with dpns? Whatever it is, tell me about it and I'll tell everyone. Even if you have a blog of your own but don't think anyone ever goes to see it, send me a pic or a link and you'll get your own post too! |
